were not everything. Repeatedly during that dreary
afternoon and evening Hornblower found himself suddenly gulping
with anxiety as the realization came to him afresh that to-morrow
morning he would be risking his life on the spin of a coin. One
chance out of two and he would be dead, his consciousness at an
end, his flesh cold, and the world, almost unbelievably, would
be going on without him. The thought sent a.shiver through him
despite himself. And he had plenty of time for these reflections,
for the convention that forbade him from encountering his destined
opponent before the moment of the duel kept him necessarily in
isolation, as far as isolation could be found on the crowded decks
of the Justinian. He slung his hammock that night in a depressed
mood, feeling unnaturally tired; and he undressed in the clammy,
stuffy dampness of the 'tweendecks feeling more than usually cold.
He hugged the blankets round himself, yearning to relax in their
warmth, but relaxation would not come. Time after time as he began
to drift off to sleep he woke again tense and anxious, full of
thoughts of the morrow. He turned over wearily a dozen times,
hearing the ship's bell ring out each half hour, feeling a growing
contempt at his cowardice. He told himself in the end that it
was as well that his fate to-morrow depended upon pure chance,
for if he had to rely upon steadiness of hand and eye he would
be dead for certain after a night like this.
That conclusion presumably helped him to go to sleep for the last
hour or two of the night, for he awoke with a start to find Danvers
shaking him.
`Five bells,' said Danvers. `Dawn in an hour. Rise and shine!'
Hornblower slid out of his hammock and stood in his shirt; the
'tweendecks was nearly dark and Danvers was almost invisible.
`Number One's letting us have the second cutter,' said Danvers.
`Masters and Simpson and that lot are going first in the launch.
Here's Preston.'
